Sophia Loren Rockin' The 1955 Mercedes SL Gullwing
...Classic Celebrity Car Coolness...
Sophia Loren
Rockin' Her 1955 300SL Mercedes-Benz SL Gullwing
Some things in this world are unequivocal, and Sophia Loren posing with the Mercedes-Benz SL Gullwing in 1955 is certainly one of them. Mama Mia!!! Sophia Loren is probably the most exotically beautiful woman that has ever lived, and in the late 1950 she owned and drove a Mercedes Benz 300SL Gullwing which she posed with quite a bit, as you can see in the following photos.

They say that people look like their dogs, and the same is likely true about cars. In other words, people choose cars that reflect their personality and sense of aesthetics. I don't know of any other female who so accurately chose a car that reflected their aesthetic and personality so much as Sophia Loren and her Gullwing 300SL. Why? When the Gullwing doors are in the up and open position, they look like Sophia's exotic eyebrows. Both Sophia and the Gullwing have stunning curves, and both are completely timeless, exotic and highly chic.


Speaking of Sophia Loren and the Mercedes SL, I thought I would share this image of Sophia with Gregory Peck taken in 1966 in a Mercedes SL...

Memories of CES 2012: The BulletTrain Booth
Memories of CES 2012
The BulletTrain Booth & Beyond
We previewed the all-new BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform at CES last week in Las Vegas and it was a huge success. Here are some photos of the BulletTrain booth. This was the first time any of us attended CES and it was the most amazing, crazy, over-the-top experience!!!

CES Debut of MBrace2
The BulletTrain booth was located in the North Hall at CES, and the only thing I saw at CES that impressed me as much as the all-new BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform was the all-new Mercedes-Benz SL Roadster–and boy was it impressive. The sliver one in the photo below was interesting because it had matte silver paint, which looked super-cool. I wrote a super-detailed preview of the all new Mercedes SL Roadster and published it on Jake's Rolex World.

One of the cool things about being an exhibitor at CES is that you get to see all the other booths before and after the show is open to the public, which explains why there are no people in these photos. Of course, if I took them during the show, they would be filled with people.

If you saw the 2013 Mercedes SL that was previewed by Mercedes in photos or at the Detroit Auto Show, the one at CES differed as you can see below, because it has the etched aluminum-trim in place of wood-trim, which gives this model a great industrial-design look & vibe.
As I mentioned earlier, the only thing I saw at CES that was as cool as the all-new BulletTrain eXpress was the all-new 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL Roadster, and fortunately I was able to get a photograph of them together. The color of the BulletTrain eXpress in the photo below is called BulletTrain Blue, which is a light cobalt blue.
